About 2/3’s of the way through this movie, it is really messed up (and therefore good :p). The guy just had a lizard tail. Yeah, it’s random and it doesn’t really appear to make any sense but it seems like a cool movie.

Wow, I’ve used this title before.

So anyway, I’m feeling a bit better at the moment, well enough to spent some time on the PC. I’ve been doing a bit of work on Movie Liquid which I’m quite fired up about at the moment. I still have a lot of work to do before it is finished though.

Mar, it’s finally got the better of me. I feel crap, I went to bed at 7 last night and didn’t get up until 10 this morning. I skipped my first lecture to get some more sleep as I wasn’t sure if I was going to go in at all but I decided I should go in to get my exam results and I managed to get through one lecture.

I’ve been in bed pretty much since I’ve been home though. I managed to drag myself onto the PC for 15 mins but I’m going back to bed now and I’ve called off my filming tomorrow which sucks as I was looking forward to that.

As for my exam results I got a 53, 63, 63, 69 and a 70 which is the equivelent of a 2-2, two 2-1’s and two 1sts so I’m pretty pleased with that. Worried about Jimmy though, he failed one of his modules and might be dropping out which sucks.

Came across this interesting article in the Search Engine Journal today. It’s about writing in the way that your target audience searches.

Ah my early morning blog. It’s only because I didn’t really have enough time to go to the union I’m actually posting now. I was going to wander over to The Lounge and have a lay down for 15 mins before my maths tutorial as I’m feeling aweful. I’m going to go back to Bod if I don’t start feeling better.

Another 7:15 start this morning so that I could get a shower and breakfast before heading into uni. Not that I ate much, I couldn’t finish my cooked part. Didn’t get the best nights sleep last night despite going to bed at 11 (I actually went at like 10:30 and watched Desperate Housewives).

Speaking of Desperate Housewives I appear to be getting pulled back into TV again. I want to watch The IT Crowd on Friday, Prison Break on Saturday, The O.C. on Sunday (that doesn’t count though as it’s The O.C. that that fact alone overrides everything) and next Wednesday Brat Camp returns. This time it’s an all girls camp, go figure what Channel 4 are going for :p.

I need sleep! I’ve had a reasonably long day. I got up at like 8:30 or something for breakfast and had stuff in the morning and afternoon and then I came home as my dad was dropping some stuff off for me (I’ve smashed almost all my glasses and such so vital supplies). Then I headed back for a film making society meeting at 5 which went on until 7:30.

Spent some time in the Bod Bar too and I’ve got a few tasks I need to do but considering I have a 9am tomorrow (which means I need to get up at like 7:15 or something!) I think I’m going to go to bed soon.

Continuing this mornings post, I got a key fob for Eniac but it only works on the inner door. I’m assured by tech support though that it will work on the outer door too once they take off the keypad. I think there are only like 5 of us who actually them them though so it looks like it will be pretty empty out of hours lol.

Actually it’s not funny, next thing we know the School of Computing will be saying “no one is using Eniac so we are going to close it down.” Yeah of course nobody is ussing it, nobody has a keyfob to get in! I’m the only person I have spoke to who actually has one and who can blame people with a £25 deposit.

I can get into Eniac again! Well sort of. It works on the inner door, not on the outer door lol.

What’s this about? I walked in here just now and there are people here! That’s just not right, Eniac is supposed to be all deserted and empty so that I can have my pick of computers. I guess closing Colossus down really is going to have an affect.

I got up at 8 am today to get down for breakfast and get an early bus into town. And yes, I have Dawson’s Creek series 6 on DVD!. 9:15 this morning down at Virgin Megastores buying it. Had lectures beginning from 10 (well a tutorial first) and that went on until 4 (with an hours break but still it’s an aweful day).

After that I went back to Michelle’s flat as she is trying to tempt me over to the dark side of self-catered accommodation so cooked me a meal :P. Then we started watching Dawson’s Creek on her laptop and got through the entire first disk.

Then some talking followed and by that time it was 11 so I’ve just got back now basically. And now I have a load of website updates to do. Long day!

Wow, can’t believe I didn’t mention this. I guess I’m trying to forget about it as I don’t finish till 4 today and I really badly want to go home and watch it now. I screamed when I found it in Virgin :p. Seriously, although it was one of my “teen drama screams” that I do when something important happens or some characters kiss, etc.

So yeah, I got up at 8 and went down to get it from Virgin this morning to use up the last of my vouchers. I’m thinking of getting the extended edition series finale DVD too although I haven’t worked out what sequence to watch them in if I did. Probably watch the entire boxset including the finale episodes and then watch the extended versions. It’s all very complicated ;).

Speaking of teen dramas I almost missed the latest episode of The O.C. yesterday. I missed it on Channel 4 but at 5:55, Katie Humpage asked me if I had E4 as she had missed it and watched to watch it on Second Chance Sunday. Thank Encoria she did or I probably would have missed it. But I managed to get my freeview box working in time to see it. And it was good. Though I’m not about to spoil it for those who haven’t seen it yet. I don’t know if it was series 1 good but then I was so fired up back then thaty few things will be.

Save Dawson’s Creek series 6 hopefully. Someone said that apparently it’s not as good, the final series. But after going through the whole Eve thing in series 3 I can’t see that it could be that bad. I mean that was terrible but I still couldn’t turn my back on it. I also got speaking to Naked Dave this morning at breakfast (you know, I’ve mentioned two people from my halls and their names are Humps and Naked Dave, what does that say about the first year of uni :p) who says he used to watch it but stopped after like series 3. It’s great to know that there are other people who don’t think it’s a big pile of crap :D. Which of course it isn’t, DC is like the greatest show ever. And Dawson rock! Sure Joey is a good character but the clue is in the name.
